Lot of Nemesis

The Lot of Nemesis is one of the Hermetic lots and the darkest of the seven.

The Lot of Nemesis is one of the Hermetic lots and the darkest of the seven. It is a calculated point drawn from three factors, the Ascendant together with Saturn and the Lot of Fortune, and its formula reverses between day and night births. Its classical planet is Saturn. By sign, the Lot of Nemesis describes the style of a person's reckonings and how they meet what is hidden or unavoidable. By house, it shows the area of life where fate weighs most heavily, where loss, limitation, or the consequences of the past are most likely felt. It often marks where a person meets the shadow side of their circumstances. Nemesis carries the saturnine themes of undoing, hidden enemies, and endings, what has been buried surfacing so accounts can be settled. Built from the Lot of Fortune, it speaks to the concealed forces that come due over a life. The work of the Lot of Nemesis is to face what has been hidden or avoided, to meet hard consequences with honesty, and to find meaning in the limits that cannot be escaped.
